Blizzard In-Game Shop Live, Many Mounts and Pets 50% Off

The Blizzard In-Game Shop made its debut today in Patch 5.4.2! Players can purchase all the Blizzard Store mounts and pets directly in-game. All you need to do is select an item, click on Buy Now when purchasing details appear, and enter in your password. The item will automatically appear in your inventory and a confirmation receipt will be sent to your Battle.net email.

Currently, you cannot gift mounts and pets in game to other players, and if you already have an item, an error message will appear when you try to buy it.

You can now browse and purchase a bevy of mounts and pets* from directly within World of Warcraft through our newly added Shop interface. Just click the Shop icon on the menu bar once you’ve logged in to a character, and you’ll be able to pick out a new friend to add to your collection and start your adventures together right away. By combining the best of cutting-edge goblin and gnomish technology, we’ve also made it possible for you to receive your new pal right in your inventory (or via mail if your inventory is full).

*Wyvern and Gryphon plushies, Guardian Cubpet and Moonkin Hatchling pet are not available for purchase within the Blizzard Shop.

**The Enchanted Fey Dragon mount, Alterac Brew Pup pet, and Blossoming Ancient pet are not available at a discounted price. In addition, Charity Bundle pricing is not available within the in-game Blizzard Shop.

There is even a rumor on some threads they may monetize some elements of free to play.Hit the 20 cap and then pay a small amount for each additional level.Sounds reasonable enough. Time will tell if it's true.

Shouldn't believe everything you read in a random thread: Blizzard has stated multiple times that the game will not be going Free to Play any time soon.

That's why it's a rumor. May happen may not. There was a time when Real ID was here to stay and micro-transactions would be "A betrayal of the player base" (Rob Pardo ~Senior VP ~Blizzard press release)And yet here we are commenting on a post about the newly enhanced micro-transaction store and real ID is optional.Blizzard evolves with the industry and the market. Never say never because they don't.
